Thanks Tony for answering the question. SO I guess now I can stop monitoring this thread since it won't do my old "287 HP" engine any good.


BTW, I installed my iso thermal upgrade yesterday and will start taking some more temperature measurements. I'll let you know the results in a couple weeks or so.

Well that SUCKS... do you have anything else in the works for the REGULAR 287 engines?? I do appreciate your honesty though

 

Yes, I absolutely do.

There are many new projects in development. And all will have a new type of twist or variation in design from what you usually see on the market.
Out of the box thinking for Cats, Test pipes, Y pipes, exhausts, intakes and many others.

Some will be entirely new and different from the products out there now.

Its time to bring a little aerospace engineering and technology into the automotive sciences. I can see a lot of areas where automotive technology can really benefit from it.

Some of the benefit will simply come from good engineering principles. And some will come from reapplication of rocket and jet propulsion design technology. There is a lot to work with.

 

it sounds like you definately have a grasp on this engine. now what i want to know is what about the 287?! i was planning on just purchasing your iso-thermal kit and the revup lower plenum. what kind of gains could i expect from that? will what you are planning on producing give me a better power gain than the iso+low plenum with no spacer?

No news yet huh?

 

My website designer says she is about 50% complete and will be done with it inside of a week!

 

Me too ... I want my 287 gains !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Let us 287 owners know ... !!!

 

Perhaps this has been covered, but it seems like the Kinextix SSV has similar dyno proven gains for us 287 guys...


??

 

OMg wtf just tell us what the thing is!

 

I know. I know. I'm going crazy too just trying to get the new website finished.

The website designer says its 50% done and will be finished in a week.

I'll post all the pictures and dynos. There will also be a much better website to boot!
Tony

 

Cheez I'm sure all of the web designers on here would have done the updates for free to get this thing rollin

 

just post the pics on here!

and we can take a look at the website later!!!

 

But if he post pics of it be4 he has the site up for it to be sold, other companys will jump on it and start selling the same thing asap! Unless it is pattened (SP) if you can do that with auto parts.

 

Hey Tony,

I'm getting my APS TT and other supporting goodies installed in a couple of weeks. Do you want to see how your product works on a rev-up TT'ed VQ? If it does work, I would pay 50% of it and let you use my dyno chart before and after if u'd like.

it i get a lower track plenum from an 05 for my 287hp 03 touring engine and have my ECU reset to the 05 ECU specs, will i benefit from this mod?

 

The 05 track lower plenum on the 287hp motor loses power everywhere in the powerband except a few hundred rpm before redline. I do not suggest doing it.

 

OK so if i had the ecu reset to an 05 revhigh motor, would that work?

 

There is more to the Rev Up than those two things. The short answer is no. The rev up has variable valve timing on both the intake and exhaust cams. Your 287 HP engine does not have the actuators for the exhaust side. The 300 HP engine uses different valve springs, etc. There are many other options to make more HP than the Rev Up is making. Seek the best one for your needs out, and enjoy.
